Marķa de Zayas y Sotomayor
Marķa de Zayas y Sotomayor was a Spanish author of the sixteenth- and seventeenth-centuries. Her baptism was known to have taken place in Madrid on September 12, 1590, and she was almost certainly born in that city a few days earlier. Very little is known about her life; even her date of death remains a mystery. Death certificates bearing the name Marķa de Zayas have been found in both 1661 and 1669, and it is unknown which (if either) refers to the author.
